To create a new communication user, perform the following steps:
-
On the initial screen select New.
-
Enter a valid user name and description.
-
Either provide a password (basic authentication) or upload certificates for certificate-based authentication.
We recommend that you use certificate-based authentication.
-
Configure password-based authentication
We recommend that you use the Propose Password button.
Passwords for communication users need to comply with the following requirements: the password length must be at least 20 characters, the password must contain at least one special character. The user will be locked after three unsuccessful login attempts.
-
Configure certificate-based authentication by uploading a X.509 client certificate.
The customer system must use a client certificate signed by an appropriate certification authority (CA). A list of all root CAs approved by SAP Global Security is available in SAP Note 2801396 (SAP Global Trust List).

-
Select Create to save the user.
You can now assign the created user to a communication system. Use the Communication Systems app for this purpose.
